When I retire, I'm looking to travel. What are some interesting places to visit?

Question

I like being outdoors/ trying new experiences and am interested in visiting unique less touristy places.

Answer 1

New Zealand is always awesome. You could check out the Waimangu Volcanic Valley near Rotorua, New Zealand ....

Answer 2

Bora Bora!!!!!!!

Bora Bora is an island paradise. As such, much of the activities available revolve around the ocean.

Scuba diving or snorkeling - Bora Bora's waters are filled with all sorts of fish, rays, sharks and other sea creatures. Many tours are available for diving and snorkeling and most hotels have great snorkeling from their own beaches - even from your own room if you get an overwater bungalow, common across French Polynesia.

Sailing - again, many tours are available, whether you are looking for a sporty catamaran ride or a sunset cruise.

Deep sea fishing - many options available.

Parasailing - many major resorts offer this.

Beaches - There are lovely beaches throughout Bora Bora for swimming and relaxing. On the main island Matira Beach is the only public beach that could be described as lovely or is of any size.

4x4 excursions - you can go offroading if you can tear yourself away from the ocean.

Pearl Shopping - Black Pearls are the signature jewelry of French Polynesia, and can be found across the islands. Do your homework to make sure you get good quality pearls for reasonable prices.
